Learning Experience

What was the most important educational experience that contributed to your abilities as a writer?  This can be a program, a person, a work you read, or even a realization you achieved yourself.

My top two both happened when I was in my early twenties.  I lived in France for a semester, then I worked in a bookstore for a couple of years.  Living abroad expanded my view of the world, and working in a bookstore taught me about literature and the book business.  I always knew I wanted to be a writer, but those two experiences actually got me started.
